Hello,
there is one implementation of variadic functions. The base premis is
transformation type:
anyparams -> n x any
anyelements -> n x anyelement
Currently variadic functions can be only in C language. PL/pgSQL
cannot access to array of params. I implented some JSON functions
(based on Bauman's libraries for MySQL). With this extension we are
able to write some sophistic libraries.
What do you thing about this concept? Has any sense continue in this project?
Regards
Pavel Stehule
